What Foods to Avoid After Teeth Whitening?
What Foods to Avoid After Teeth Whitening?
I just got my teeth whitened two hours ago via BriteWhite. I am pleased with the results and want to do everything possible to further the whitening and prevent the stains from returning.
My questions is what foods, drinks, and drugs/vitamins (if any) to avoid for the first day or two, and then what food, drinks, or drugs/vitamins (if any) to avoid permanently.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Jen T: Anything that can stain a white shirt can stain your teeth. So, no coke or pepsi or anything and if you have it then brush your teeth afterwards.

L<3ved: If you drink tea or coke or anything with a green or brown color use a straw. Even for coffee!!! Thats what my dentist tells me and it works.

Anne2: Coffee, tea, soda, anything colored. Your teeth will absorb any color for about three days, until they re harden. I know, I wanted a cup of coffee so bad. Just clear liquids, I did not even eat thing like tomatoes, peaches, cherries, that had color. costs too much to ruin the smile. I even bought white toothpaste, mine was green and white, and I did not want to take a chance. They(teeth), are said to be porous until they harden. Now mine looked just so nice at first, but about five hours later, I looked in the mirror and my upper lip looked like a duck, I turned the upper lip up to look inside and it had a blister from one side to the other. I did not realize it, did not feel it until it happened. Now if this does happen to you, get some orajel and put on inside of upper lip. The lip sticks out so you will not swallow it. I also bought Sensodyne toothpaste.
This went away after two days.
